Consumer Description

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND TRAC CONTROL LIGHTS CAME ON AROUND 72,000 MILES. TRUCK STARTED TO BE SLUGGISH AND LOSE POWER. THE TRUCK IS IN A CONSTANT 'LIMP' MODE AND FAILS TO PROPERLY ACCELERATE. IT IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT CAUSES UNSAFE CONDITIONS WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE INTO A TRAFFIC LANE. TOOK IT TO DEALER AND IT IS AN ISSUE WITH THE SECONDARY AIR INJECTION VALVES AND PUMPS. DEALER QUOTED ME $2184.25 TO FIX. NOT CURRENTLY COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. TOYOTA HAS ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE WITH OTHER YEARS AND MODELS BUT FOR SOME REASON HAS EXCLUDED THE 2012 TUNDRA. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND THEY REFER ME TO NHTSA TO FILE A COMPLAINT. SAME ISSUES REPORTED FOR THE 2012 TOYOTA TUNDRA REFERENCE NHTSA ID NUMBERS: 11129958 11129497 11128204 11109923 11104774 11076034 11075528 11065298 11002406 10994136 10926200 10567001 10489030 HOW MANY COMPLAINTS HAVE TO BE FILED BEFORE TOYOTA CORRECTS THE ISSUE?
